People who regularly drink coffee could be less at risk for the early stages of Alzheimer's and dementia, a new study recently found. Researchers at the University of Bari Aldo Moro in Italy studied 1,445 people 65-84 years old over an average of three and a half years.
They were looking for signs of mild cognitive impairment (MCI), a decline in thinking and memory associated with dementia and Alzheimer's, and found a link between it and coffee consumption. The participants who regularly drank one to two cups of coffee during their life were less at risk for MCI.
